Of all the infamous dates in the past 100 years - 12/7/1941, 11/22/1963, 9/11/2001 - December 7th is the only one for which Americans received full closure. The attackers of Pearl Harbor, along with their allies, were destroyed.
Those Americans who turned ignominious defeat into victory have been called the greatest generation, and 72 years later most of them have left us. Let us remember those who are gone, honor those who remain, and in our own lives perform as nobly and selflessly as they did.
